Ray’s mission is to inspire and awaken people to see and do what’s possible in their lives and in their workplace. It's about unfettering the God-given potential inside ourselves and inside teams and organizations.“Kaizen” is a Japanese business philosophy that means “continuous, ongoing, incremental improvement in all aspects of one’s life.” It is a philosophy that Ray practices and ignites in individuals. Ray brings this philosophy of continuous, ongoing improvement to individuals and organizations by providing high performance training, personal development, and coaching processes aimed at improving leadership, management, teams and personal effectiveness. The outcome is unfettered potential within people and organizations to maximize results — at work, at home, in all aspects of one's life.“Acumen” is designed for Owners and top Executives who want to sharpen their edge and grow their companies. Acumen is a Platform for Growth: You. Your Company. Your Equity. Your Profit. Your Culture. Your People. Your Leadership. Your Impact. If where you’re at today isn’t good enough, and you thrive when pushed to new heights, then Acumen could be a fit for you. Finding competent, trustworthy, value-aligned, experienced comrades in the journey is hard. Many offer advice – few provide resources that inspire, challenge and sharpen leadership effectiveness and accelerated growth, results, and outcomes!“Marked Men for Christ” is a ministry centered on Building Stronger Men for Jesus Christ. Ray is responsible for Leadership Development and Organizational Capability for the ministry, and he is a Senior CoLeader for MMFC experiences — serving men on 75+ “weekends” in multiple locations around the world. Ray is happily married to Julie, his wife of over 38 years. Julie and Ray work together raising their five boys, four daughters-in-law, and fourteen grandchildren.
